Maybe I'll make my famous chicken paprikash, in fact I mused making turkey paprikash. When the olman was alive alot of times - after we decided turkey was not the holy grail of food - he would make a standing rib roast or something. Sometimes years ago we had cookouts on the holidays, it's warm out there if you stay close enough to the fire.

I try not to make plans, which really makes it a holiday. Plans are like work. I plan to change a CRT and the HVG, then press 062957menu to get into the secret service mode to perform the alignment. When off work, I plan to do whatever I damnwell please.

For some odd reason though, thanksgiving does require the playing of Arlo Guthrie - Alice's Restaurant.

Pretty much whatever makes for a relaxing day.

I do the baking a lot of prep in advance so that I can feel at ease as well.

Status: offline 		Busy fun weekend planned.  The Man is coming up tonight for my bday, then we're going to my brother's tomorrow for a big family Thanksgiving dinner. Friday it's a show in San Francisco, Saturday another Thanksgiving dinner at the Man's house, Sunday we're going to the Raider game, unless he sells his tickets, which he's trying to do.

I so love this time of year

Status: offline 		i'm heading up to my parent's after class tonight. (my teacher is evil and insists on having class the day before Thanksgiving.) We're having Chinese food, actually. We'll probably keep it low-key, all the rest of my family, including my brother and his wife are getting together in Long Beach, but my Mom isn't up for travel since she's smack in the middle of chemo. So, my Dad and i are doing what we can to make it nice for her...and, she wants Chinese.

Status: offline 		Plans have changed due to weather, which I guess is good.   Don't want old folks driving on ice covered roads.

Found a small turkey (yipee), under 10lbs, making all the trimmings that go with it.  Started cooking today, will continue tommorrow :)  Football, Guy Flicks and whatever will be on the tube. I get to watch Macy's Parade in between cooking, then the remote is handed over to himself, never to be seen again.

Wishing everyone a splendid time :)
